Happy Mother's Day! :heartbeat:
Nat I love both your name choices :) I think Hugo is a strong name, and Stella is lovely! And good to hear the 2 dogs are getting on well.
Teresa, I know what you mean with the nudity! Blake just loves to drop his daks any chance he gets, lol. Good luck with the toilet training, I don't know where to start either :/
Congrats again Rach :D Wedding planning is fun!
I hope everyone had a great Mother's Day. Mine didn't start off too well cause I woke up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. It did get a bit better though and poor DH tried his best.
Teresa - does Hamish do anything on the potty? Angus used to take his nappy off heaps and we started, but gave up after a day of him weeing on Everything. DH has been putting him on the potty every night before bath time for the last 6 moths, but he's never done anything. I think if he did, I would then give it another go...
ReeRee & Rach - thanks for the comments about the names. DH doesn't really like them and the ones he suggests, I don't really like. Oh well, just over 10 weeks to decide!
Does anyone still have their LO in a cot? Angus is still in his, bet everyone else in our playgroup seems to be in a big bed or at least have the sides of the cot off. I was going to leave the bed until I move Angus into a new room and the baby goes into the nursery, but thats probably at least 6 months away....
Blake is still in a cot. I'm in no hurry to get him out, or take a side off. He tosses and turns HEAPS in his sleep, I'm sure he'd fall off a single bed, lol! And he'd probably get straight out of bed and play at bedtime as soon as I put him in! So yeah, the cot works and he can stay there ;)
When the next baby comes along and needs a cot, then I'll move him into a bed if we haven't already done it. But that's close to 18 months away at best!
I've had Jemma in a king single since she was about 20mo. She has a bed rail and she loves it. She was sick constantly when I started work so I slept a lot with her on the floor in the lounge room and since then she wouldnt sleep in her cot. I think we had 2 days of getting out to play but I just lay there with her Til she fell asleep then snuck out.
nat - no he hasnt but i think once he does one or two wees it will click. they say persistance and patience are the key! lol
we turned hamish's cot to the toddler bed when we moved. the temporary accommodation only had single beds (after i requested a cot during the booking). we turned up to find no cot there. so hamish slept in a single bed. fell out one night! so we thought we would just turn his cot into a bed. been good since except he often comes into us at night now. i end up putting him in bed with us, wait until he is asleep again, then put him back into his bed. we are getting him a new bed soon. found a bunk (not very high) with steps at the end, heaps of storage, and rails all around so he cant fall out. just getting the money together so we can go and get it. i think his toddler bed isnt comfortable for him. plus he is almost too tall for it too!
Been very quiet in here. Hope everyone is just busy xx
wow definately quieit in here lately!
well we decided to stop trying to toilet train hamish. it appears he isnt ready and still not 100% interested in using the toilet. i dont think it will be too much longer tho. plus he no longer fits into his envious embroidered nappies :( oh well time to pack those ones away then until we decide what we are going to do!
Hamish has just gone up to size 3 clothes and size 10 shoes (big foot) lol everywhere we go someone always asks us how old he is and they all guess he is around 3-4 years old! almost as tall as some of them too! he is going to tower over me and darren when he is older. me its not hard really lol
hope everyone is well xxx
Wow Teresa - that's a big shoe size. I remember going to the child health clinic for immunisations and seeing this boy I thought was really 'behind' in speech and development. It wasn't until the mother said he was 2 and a half - but he looked at least 4! Hope the toilet training comes along soon. I think it's a good idea to give it a break - especially during the winter. Angus has been sitting on his potty each night before a bath for close to 10 months, but has never done anything. I hope he doesn't just think it is a game now...
Well just over 8 weeks until our next baby is due. I'm really nervous about the birth, lack of sleep and getting any housework done. Luckily my Mum will be here for 6 months, otherwise I don't know how I would cope!
Angus is at a beautiful age - I love the 2's! He's just started to say 'no' and 'ok' a few weeks before that. So now I can ask him if he wants to do something and when he says 'ok' it is so much easier. If he says 'no', I just wait a while and rephrase it or make it sound really exciting. He's going to be really helpful with the new baby because he loves to help around the house, unstacking the dishwasher and helping with the washing etc. Lately I've been putting the tv on for an hour or 2 in the morning while I clean and he will watch a bit, draw at his table and then 'read' his books (naming some of the objects out loud). I love this independence!
Breathing some life back into this thread!
Hellllllllooooooo?
:)
Haha Rach, I'm still here :)
Be back tomorrow for persies, just off to bed :asleep: xoxoxox

OMG!! REE REE!!! CONGRATULATIONS :leap: :leap:
Hi ladies
well whats been happening lately? not much here. had to take Hamish to the docs the other day as his little willy was swollen. got to the docs and some pus decided to make itself known! so he is currently on antibiotics to clear that one up! still in nappies. no success with the toilet so we have back right off!
hope everyone else is all good!
xx
I'm having a hard time toilet training too. Want her out of nappies before this one arrives.. Keep persevering I guess! Having a little break from it this week but prob isn't helping!
She finally understands there's a baby in my tummy and has no problems lifting up my shirt wherever we are and giving it a kiss and a rub! So effing adorable!
OK I'm back ladies :)
Ree and Rach, glad you're going OK ladies :)
Teresa, poor lil Hamish! Hope his lil sausage recovers soon.
Toilet training? Pft!!! Cam shows absolutely no iterest in in, doesn't even tell me when he's done poos. I know when he does do them, he hides in his room and closes the door. Will attempt it when summer comes.
Still miles behind in speech :wall: although he has had a small word explosion lately with a few more words. I have enrolled him in cc 2 half days week per week to help him in that department. He seems to enjoy it.
We did a cycle last month which didn't work, that's two failed cycles this year so I'm pretty bummed about that. We're foing to see the FS tomorow to see where to go from here. I think I will give myself the balance of this year to get pg, if I don't succeed Cam will be an only child for DF and I. Boo hoo.
Hope everyone and their little ones are going well :)
Hi everyone!!!
We have backed right off on the toilet training as she was starting to get a bit stubborn about it, and with the tummy issues she already has it was becoming a nightmare! I am hoping with summer it will naturally start up again... She usually spends the entire time in her bathers so it might be easier to push the point then.
How's everyone going with eating? Tiah basically refusing everything but yoghurt and cereal now. It is so frustrating
